Good evening!
We have a very cool evening, with the temperature going down to 53, and up to 74 tomorrow. Summer shifts to autumn. Mountains rush and rivers gush upon people in the typhoon in Japan.
The Buddha said the mountains of the east, west, south, and north rush towards us. How can we evade them? There is no place to evade imminent impermanence.
But there is a way beyond heat and chill, gain and loss, birth and death – that is nirvana, the windless state of karma, asankhata, the uncreated.
“No karma” is this solid, still, serene sitting in unconditioned peace. Please sit in your best posture, with best breathing and purest mental state – anyone can witness it.
